“This is the second time that we have used Birch cott for a holiday, its a beautiful area and cottage to stay in.”

I would highly recommend this property for a holiday even a stay vacation, even living 15 minutes away from it was a beautiful holiday location.

“We had a lovely week at Birch Cottage, it was clean and very spacious for the 3 of us plus dog.”

Very private garden which we would have loved to have made more use of if the weather was better. We did have a power cut one evening, fortunately after we had cooked dinner!, the owners informed us when it was likely to be resolved and it was within the time frame so not too much of a problem. It was in a great location and easy to get to places, supermarkets etc close by and a small co-op within walking distance.

Thank you Adam Best wishes to you and your family Property Owner

“An excellent property, with more than enough facilities to make it a perfect base for exploring local attractions.”

It lived up to our expectations in every respect.

“We had a lovely stay but feel the cottage has an identity crisis and is not sure about the rooms.”

We didn’t need two lunges and a cinema room so most of the time sat in one lounge. Couldn’t understand all the cupboard space in the other lounge and kitchen. Lots of empty cupboards for a holiday let. A lot of the kitchen ware and glasses were dirty and needed up washing things before we used it. We also found some kitchen ware missing like a colander to wash salad and vegetables. Outside area was lovely. Well stocked garden which the dogs loved. We found the cottage well situated for our travels around Norfolk. Maybe warn people about the narrow tracks to get to the cottage.

“Amazing property, so much so we didn't want to leave.”

The extra sitting room was also a hit with our teenager... Kitchen had all amenities you need. Ice creams in the freezer also went down well! The property was so spacious.. bigger than in the photos.. and we all slept well and the addition of the stars were a lovely touch! Extra pillows were available if needed. The cot was made on arrival and my youngest didn't get us up at the crack of dawn! The best property we have stayed in! Barbara visited when we were arrived to check everything was OK which was nice as normally you don't see the owner, and was able to give us some recommendations. Bewilderwood is not far if you have children and Great Yarmouth is also not far, which we loved Macdonald's is down the road which is a winner, especially if you have a child with ASD! The local Chinese is also a lovely takeaway. Cinema room was fantastic and a nice way to unwind after a busy day. Would definitely recommend. We try to always opt for bungalows especially with small children and this didn't disappoint.

“A wonderful holiday home.”

We throughly enjoyed our stay as a family of 6 (Multi generational). Everything was easily accessible and spotlessly clean. A real luxury stay, both inside and outside of the home. Beautiful secret garden to enjoy - so tranquil - with gorgeous outside entertaining space. This property is 5 star ( and I am picky) - everything you could wish for and more - with a cinema room as an addition - annexe in the garden. A great base for exploring Wroxham and a day on the boat. Thank you Barbara for making our stay such a happy one with memories made. This is a real Gem!

“We had a super holiday.”

It’s the best place we have ever stayed. No expence spared on the facilities. Beautiful comfy sofa. Fabulous kitchen and laundry room. Massive fridge and freezer. Very very comfortable beds. Barbara the lady who own the cottage. Could not do enough for us. She is lovely. It’s set back away from the road with 2 super parking spaces. So we felt very safe and knew our car was safe too. Thankyou for a fabulous stay. We will be back and we will be recommending it to our friends. But then maybe not they may want to go when we do xx

“Birch Cottage is a beautiful well maintained and managed property.”

Is totally as described. Lots of space, very private and great asset in the cinema room. Would highly recommend. Barbara is a great host and is always there for issues. She also listens to comments from previous visitors and is constantly working on suggestions. We had a fabulous holiday, the cottage gives you easy access to the Broads, the coast and the city of Norwich. We will be returning.

“Lovely bungalow really well equipped and everything thought of.”

It really was one of the best places we have stayed. We really appreciated the milk and biscuits on arrival. We have already started to look to see if we can book to come back.

- Jacqueline, June 2023

Thank you Jacquelin. Hopefully see you again. Best wishes to you and your family Barbara Property Owner

“Very nice property, very clean with some great features.”

Owner’s communications was excellent with the offer of help on tap if we needed it. Property isn’t easy to find or park at (if you have large vehicles take note). On the plus side it feels very secluded and cosy. The showers are amazing as is the cinema room. Two of the great features. Well located for the broads and days at the beach not too far a drive. Local curry house the bay leaf serves very good food and amazing service. Have recommended to the owner that additional utensils be provided as the property is lacking in this regard - there aren’t many improvements that could be made! Stay here and you won’t be disappointed. We would happily stay again.

- Jonathan, May 2023

Thank you John I have now purchased extra kitchen utensils. Best wishes to you and your family. Barbara Property Owner

“What can we say the property was fantastic,and so was the owner Barbara The beds were extremely comfortable, the two on suite bedrooms had glow in the dark stars which looked like the night sky when it went dark, the showers/wet rooms were fantastic.”

The garden was completely enclosed so our dogs could roam around freely Two separate sitting rooms one attached to the kitchen and the other just as big we were spoilt for choice and the cinema room what a fantastic room to catch up on some films our daughter brought her switch so could play on it via the massive cinema screen Thankyou Barbara for being a wonderful host and for the polish doughnuts you brought us they were fantastic, we will be back next year Dziękuję

“Our trip was to surprise our wives for their 50th birthdays, we had an amazing time, Barbara the owner was fantastic with directions, the home is very comfortable, it has everything you need, the village is great as well & although we practically stayed at the property all weekend & never ventured away, i know the area & know that it is situated very well with links to Norwich & Great Yarmouth, thank you, we will definitely be booking again.”

- Jason, April 2023

Thank you Jason I’m happy you enjoyed your stay Best wishes Barbara Property Owner

“It was a pleasure to stay in Birch Cottage.”

A very lovely dog friendly cottage which was clean, comfortable, warm and well equipped. The shower was wonderful … very powerful! The garden was secure and well kept with garden furniture and a bbq which would be great in the warmer months. The owner popped round to say hello and make sure everything was ok and the welcome goodies were a nice touch too. The village has plenty of amenities within walking distance, including a dog friendly pub which served great food, and two small, but well stocked supermarkets. Loved our stay and will return!

Penny December 2022

“Lovely bungalow and worked very well for a trio of couples sharing New Year.”

The underfloor heating took some getting used to, but we were very cosy! We could have done with a few serving bowls, but apart from that we had everything we needed.

- Penny, December 2022
Avril October 2022

“This is a very comfortable and spacious property we couldn’t fault it.”

Beautifully clean and everything we needed for our stay was there. Would most certainly use again. couldn’t thank owners son enough for assisting us with a small technical issue.

- Avril, October 2022
Gary September 2022

“During a very windy period the canopy outside of the utility room blew down, the main living room curtain pole was not securely fixed pulling away from the fixing, more brackets or lighter weight curtains might be advisable, these points were mentioned to the owner, otherwise a beautiful cottage that was clean and comfortable and well located to visiting places of interest.”

“Wow”

“A fabulous, well furnished and comfortable bungalow in an ideal place for touring Norfolk.”

The “glow in the dark” stars in 2 of the bedrooms were brilliant, very relaxing - we’d never seen or heard of them before. Highly recommended!
